Coming from east to southeast facing plots, the 2016 is dark and dense on the nose - all deliciously wet autumn forest, mulch and slight tar. Notes of struck stone and white spring blossom appear gradually. Linear, tense and racy, the palate packs no excess baggage yet there is inner richness and depth. Intricately woven, tight-grain tannins melt slowly but remain firm. Savoury and energetic in appeal. Overshadowed by more famous neighbouring MGAs, Serra straddles Serralunga’s main ridge which divides the commune into east and west. Giovanni Rosso is the only estate to make a separate bottling.
